- 5.0/5(4 Hr Midday Hatteras Inlet)
A terrific fishing experience.
This 4 hr inshore trip is a great first trip to check out your resistance to sea sickness. A little Dramamine and some ginger candy helped us avoid it. The family is already agitating for a longer trip next year on the Stormy Petrel!
